These a listed in my textbook covering Legislation in the section on the Intiative, Referendum, and Recall section. Likely will have some items on Oregon and the DLL. 1913 book may even be on Google Books. Aboutmovies (talk) 23:59, 27 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Here is a related SCOTUS case, redlinked currently: Pacific States Telephone & Telegraph Co. v. Oregon, but the text is here.

And if you have JSTOR access: a Yale Law Review Article, or with Google books: a good source list and this for more Oregon. The Yale Law Journal is supposed to be about mainly Oregon. Aboutmovies (talk) 00:42, 28 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Here's another source from the Oregon Law Review which specifically gets into the 19th Oregon Legislative Assembly's failure to organize and how that related. It would be good to start assembling this stuff into a better article. [1] -Pete (talk) 05:41, 17 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
